About us
Love Star Trek? So do we — and this group is here to help fans across the Portland area connect, make friends, and geek out together over the shows, movies, games, and more.
We’ve been around for a while — originally founded by Chris Rockhold and kept going thanks to a passionate crew of longtime fans. Over the years, we’ve hosted events all across the Portland area — from Wilsonville to Vancouver, and Hillsboro to Gresham — and even made a few away missions to Seattle, Las Vegas, and other nerdy destinations.
Whether it’s a board game night, a watch party, a museum trip, or a Trek-themed hike, there’s always something fun coming up. We’re a friendly, welcoming bunch — so feel free to jump in and make yourself at home. 🖖

Meet & Greet & Play Games
Starbase 6950, 6950 SW Hampton St Ste 305, Portland, OR, USThis month we’re gathering at STFNW Headquarters, Starbase 6950. You can find us easily on Google Maps by searching for STFNW, and the location is accessible via shuttle (TriMet 78) or warp-capable ground vehicles, with free parking available behind the building.
This will be our first Star Trek game night at Starbase 6950, and it’s a great fit for the kind of relaxed, social gaming we enjoy. The space lends itself to a smaller, cozier feel where it’s easy to meet people, chat between turns, and settle into a game without feeling rushed or overwhelmed.
What we’ll be doing
Our monthly game nights are designed to be welcoming to casual players and non-gamers alike. We focus on cooperative and social games, and there’s absolutely no pressure to already know the rules. You’re welcome to jump into a game, observe for a bit, or just stop by to say hello and get to know the group.
Game nights are also a great way to connect with fellow STFNW members before some of our smaller, home-hosted gatherings. Everything here is about building familiarity and community in a comfortable, low-key environment.
Games we often bring include
Star Trek: Risk
(a fun reimagining of the classic)Star Trek: Catan
(an approachable, competitive favorite)Star Trek: Five Year Mission
(a fast-paced cooperative dice game)Star Trek Panic!
(work together to complete missions and keep the Enterprise from blowing up)Star Trek Deck Building Game
(both Original Series and TNG versions)Star Trek: Galactic Enterprises
(a Ferengi-approved auction game)Various editions of Star Trek: Fluxx
(simple, chaotic, and always changing)Star Trek: Missions
(a Star Trek take on Fantasy Realms)You’re also very welcome to bring your own favorite Star Trek game, or any other game you enjoy and are happy to teach.
We’re looking forward to an easygoing evening of games, conversation, and Trek camaraderie at Starbase 6950.
